Tucson Sampiing Works.

We called at the Tucson Sampling
Works this morning and were kindly
escorted over the premises and shown
the process of treating the ores, by the
proprietor Of the works, Mr.. Chas.
Wores.
When the miner delivers his ore at
the Sampling Works, it is first placed
on the scales and weighed, Immediately
after which, it is put through the rock,
crusher and broken into pieces almost
the size of a wail-nuts. AS it falls
from the crusher it is carried off in
wheels barrows. From every barrow
load two shovelfulls are taken for
sample. When about so pounds are
thus collected from this shovelfulls
taken from the different wheel barrows
it is passed through the rollers and
crushed to the size of gravel This
gravel is then sampled down to about
three pounds and passed through the
pulverizer, and comes out as fine as
powder. The sacks of equal size are
filed with the powder. One is sealed
up and set aside as the umpire sack,
another Is given to the customer and
the third is assayed. If the customer
is not satisfied with the result shown
by the assay of tie third sack the um
pire sack is then assayed, and if any
difference is shown the umpire sack
governs. Mr. Wores then deducts the
customary charges and pays the Gus
toner what ever balance is due, for It's |
ore. This is what is called the "C0r- |
nish method" and is very satisfactory
both to the customer and the pro-
prietor of the works.
A twenty horse power engine is con- |
nected with the Sampling Works and |
also runs two stamp mill which is
used by Mr.. Wores solely for the
crushing Of ore FROM his own mi Q
Another department Of this large and |
thriving establishment is the assay |
office, also under the charge of Mr.. |
Worss. This department is rushed |
with work, as the charges for making
assays are very reasonable, and Mr.. |
Wores' assay Office is probably the best
appointed in the territory. We would |
like to give a more detailed description
of the mill and machinery but space |
will not permit.
Dir. Wores has had much to contend |
with in perfecting this enterprise and
richly deserves the success he is meet.

THE NEW HAVEN HIGHWAY CASE.
Result of the Special Town Meeting Held
there "Wednesday.

Our New Haven correspondent writes as
follows The town meeting on Wednes-
day seemingly ended the highway case"
which has developed considerable hitter
feeling. The highway from the depot to
Bristol has, owing to the treacherous soil
and heavy travel, been much of the year
one of the worst roads in the State. The
town has spent large sums of money
in repairs in the ordinary method, but the
benefit was only temporary Under the
provisions of act No. II of 1884, the select
men fled their petition at the December
term, 1855, for state aid. Gov. +. j. Orms-
bee, Hon. Henry Lane and II. c. Jackman
of Walthamwere appointed commissioners,
and after careful examination the com
mission reported at the June term, 1856,
recommending an appropriation from the
state of 5000, providing the town would
devote $500 to the same purpose. The
court confirmed the report and appointed
G.. w. Rogers commissioner to extend
the $500 Although nearly all the town
officials endorsed Mr.. Rogers and with
one exception remain loyal to nm to the
present time, yet an intense OPP
position to him soon developed
and the town meeting held July
to see if the town would comply
with the condition imposed by the court
adjourned to September without action
In the interim unsuccessful efforts were
made for an adjustment between the par
ties aud at the September meeting an ad
iournment was had to January ,, 1887
also wit hOut action.
Much solcitude was felt the past yea
in regard to the action of the Legislature
but rs nothing done by that body changed
the status of the case, the war went ON. a
large petition was obtained, soliciting tn,

MURDERED WITH HIS FIST.
A FATHER CHARGED WITH KILLING
HIS FIVE CHILDREN
When Infants, by Crushing their Heads
with His Fist-1he Unnatural Father
Lodged in Jail Great Excite
ment in Caledonia County.

ST. JoHNsBURY, Vt, Jan. Civilian
f.. Dian of Wheelock, Il small town in the
northern part of this county, was lodged
in Jail here yesterday, charged with muir
dering his infant daughter. 1t is alleged
that when the infant was three weeks old
Dzan crushed its head with blow of his
fist. There was no physician present at
the mothers confinement, or at any time
thereafter, nor was assistance called in
from neighbors. The disappearance of the
child created great deal of talk in the
neighborhood, but nothing could be as
certained, and the matter was allowed to
rest. This took place three years ago this
winter, and since that time the Dizans
have had four children, two being twins.
All these infants Dizan is alleged to have
disposed of in the same manner-crushed
in their heads with blow of his fist.
DlZan is about 40 years of age, and five
years ago came to Wheelock from Barns
ton, Canada. His wife is also a Canadian,
Dian has owned and carried on a small
farm, but his principal business has been
smuggling liquor from Canada and sell
ing it III Vermont. Two months ago he
was tiled 800 III this county for liquor
selling. This week he was arrested in an
ADJOINING county Ou the same charge, but
was turned over to the authorities of this
county, who had been investigating the
charges OF child murder and had obtained
sufficient evidence to render his guilt rea-
sonably certain.
He has long borne very bad reputa-
tson in Wheelock, having been charged
with arson and various other crimes. But
aside from his illegal liquor business, no
proof OF crime has been brought forward
against him. The arrest creates excite
ment all through this part of the State
The prosecution is in charge OF Alexander
Dunnett of this town, who is States at
torney. Dian has retained as counsel
f. a. Cook OF Glover aud is making an
effort to retain Henry c. Bates, a promn-
ent lawyer Of this town. The prosecuting
authorities are reticent as to the details of
the evidence against DiZan. reserVing them
until the preliminary hearing, be which
will held soon.

One of the mail agents on the run from
Essex Junction to Boston via Burlington,
says that more mail matter was handled
this winter during the holidays than ever
before. During December over 100 sacks
of papers were worked on the run be
sides the regular pouches. In addition to
this there were over 1900 sacks of through
mail matter handled, each of which aver
aged 800 pieces During the same month
over 2O00 registered packages We're
handled besides a large number of
through packages. The number of
Christmas cards sent through the
mails WAS much smaller than on
previous occasions, but more boxes,
bundles and books We're handled. Accord
ing to the report of the general super
intendent of the railway mail service one
car on the Essex Junction and Boston line
handles on an average over ton of
mail matter day, but during the holl-
days more than double that amount was
handled.

Washington despatch says: Some
comment was heard at the time of the
funeral of Senator Logan on the fact that
Senator Edmunds was not present, and
that nothing whatever had been heard
from him. He and Gen. Logan had long
occupied adjoining seats in the Senate
chamber, and they were warm friends,
and Mr.. Edmundss silence when the
Illinois senator died was regarded as at
least strange. The Vermont senator has
returned to Washington, and it is now
known that he has very satisfactory eX
PLANTATION to make of his silence. Mr..
Edmunds and party of friends spent the
holiday recess on a cunning trip III the
South. They were beyond the reach of
mails or kilograms until Saturday last the
day after Gen. Logan was buried. On
Saturday the senator reached a little town
several miles from Norfolk, and there he
heard tor the first time that Gen. Logan
was dead.
